I don't understand why ROBLOX has ads from different sites. It does give a reason why, but some stuff might not be suitable for kids. Kids play on ROBLOX every day, and I have seen some ads that are not too pleasant. Some can also contain viruses and some can lie. For example a ad could say "Click here to buy an Xbox for 80 dollars" and the kid could click on it and it could pull up a completely different site, which can be ban in some ways.

So in that case I think ROBLOX should remove these ads, for the safety of children and the safety of ROBLOX, and the safety of our computers.


Thank you!

(Which can be ban in some ways)

Ban should be BAD


(For example a ad could say)

Should be AN AD

No support.

Adverts are ran by Google AdSense, if I'm not mistaken. Google AdSense displays adverts based on your searches, page context and your history. Most of the time it's the users fault for seeing those adverts.

No support, there are 2 types of ads app ads and site ads. If you see inappropriate content on ads showing up chances are there is a program on your computer known as (adware) basically taking over your computer and replacing the site ads with their ads it can get real real real nasty. I am a computer genius so PM me for feedback.

I agree, HOWEVER, the ads are served via Google I believe. If you want ads to be changed, convince Google to review ads for a G-rating, then convince them to release a system that makes a separate pool of ads that are G-rated, then convince Roblox to get their advertising plan changed to a G-rated exclusive plan.

Debating wasting the $30 on 1/2yr of BC just for the Tide ads.

Or you could just adblock.
